A group of thieves ransacked an Amazon delivery van as the helpless driver looked on in shock during the brazen daylight robbery in Atlanta in the latest series of attacks on delivery trucks.
The driver told police she was delivering a package to Country Oaks Apartments in the Fairburn Mays neighborhood Sunday afternoon while leaving her vehicle running unattended, a common habit among delivery service workers.
He then claimed that at least four men ran up to the truck and stole several packages from inside, according to 11Alive.
Captured video From a nearby apartment the thieves are shown jumping from the front of the van and running to the back, where the door is already open, before climbing back in and stuffing their arms with parcels.
The camera then turned to the driver, in the middle of her delivery route, who suddenly stopped walking and watched as her truck was looted.

It is unknown what items were in the stolen packages.
Investigators are working to discover the identities of the suspects and determine the circumstances behind the robbery, according to the outlet.
